I want to open a MS Word Document (.doc) file and get the contents of the file. The issue that I'm having is that on our server we have MS Word Viewer 2003 installed and I cannot figure out how to create or connect to this com object. The code I have works perfectly on the workstation, but I have the regular MS Office 2003 installed. So locally the creation and connection to winword.exe is great, but on the server I get the following error. The code that creates the object or connects to the existing object is below the error. Thanks in advance for any help on this issue.
